The first store in Davisville was located across the river from the
present building. It was moved in 1823 by Aquila Davis and attached to
his brick home on the hill for use as a shed. Lucretia Davis wrote in
her memoirs that a second store was built on the site of the current
Country Corner Store and was occupied by a Mr. Duby. It was a story and
a half construction and had an outside stairway on the north which led
up to a room where Seth Low had his cobbler shop.

Nathaniel Davis (lived in the old tavern) probably owned the shop and it
was operated either by a member of the family or leased out.

In 1892 Henry C. Davis sold the store to his clerk, Moses Trussell who
operated the store for many years. Trussell enlarged the building by
adding another story and a wrap around porch and outside stairs.
Trussell was also postmaster until 1908 when the branch was closed.

In 1919 the stock and store were sold to the Webber family for $4,000.
Oakman Webber would manage the store while Augusta (his second wife)
took in summer boarders during their tenure. Their home could
accommodate fifty guests while the overflow would sleep in bedrooms at
the store. The Webbers would sell the business in 1941. Since then the
store has passed through a succession of owners.
